shuf desires poetry which challenges the very definition of poetry, through experimentation, mixed media, genre bending, video, animation, sound, visual text, and music.

shuf wants to take advantage of digital media by providing a home for work that cannot be solely expressed through print, work from emerging and diverse audiences, work that might be lost through the lack of a media, work created with love and attention and poetic care, work deserving of being shared with the world.
